Hi all, the driver-side rear wing has "popped in".

 

Is it something that I can fix, or should I take it to a body shop...?

Many thanks all!

 

My Alphard has spoilers so I didn't want to mess with those or undo them, so I bought some suction cups from Amazon - 6 quid and after a bit of pulling... they worked!

 

Thanks again folks 

You sure it's popped in? This looks like the rear has been 'touched' which had caused the bumper retaining clips to break. 

 

The clips are designed to take some impact trauma and can be replaced.

Well spotted.

 

It's basically the victim of a dodgy bodyshop. I'd like to get it done properly but there's nowhere near me that would sort it.
